Chapter 37: To Go or To Stay?

In June, the end of the semester is approaching, which also means that the end of an academic year is coming, the work is gradually entering the final stage, and the student organizations and clubs have also ushered in the election of the new student cadres. As the last large-scale event of this academic year, the chorus, which is only held once every two years, has also become the last task of the student union of this year.

Most of the departments at the last regular meeting before the official competition were omitted because there were too few people, but the Department of Culture and Sports was as lively as ever.

"Tomorrow is the last time we all work together, I am very happy to be able to meet your group of people, and I am very grateful to you for persevering until now, so that we have suffered a lot of scolding, and our department has been praised and applauded many times."

Chen Xiaodi has never liked sensationalism, and after tomorrow she will no longer be a colleague and will not be able to work together, but everyone is still best friends, so she doesn't want the atmosphere of the last regular meeting to be too dignified.

"We don't have Xiaodi's good eloquence so we won't be sensational, tomorrow the last work, I hope everyone will keep the previous state and happily complete the last task. Also, if you are interested in running for minister, you will definitely be able to stay, and you will have to work hard no matter which department you go to. ”

The procedural greetings, coupled with a brief work arrangement, were followed by a routine tea party, and everyone chatted as usual until the curfew time was almost up.

Chen Xiaodi participated in the choir of the college, so she was not responsible for the specific work, but in the end, she also stayed with everyone until the end, and left after cleaning up the venue.

The next day, the time for the college students' music saving competition was set, and Chen Xiaodi accompanied Bai Ye to the sports center to report, and by the way, he went to the competition site to see the venue.

"Wow, that's big enough."

This time the provincial competition was selected in the largest gymnasium in the provincial capital, and the two were standing in the audience here with the other contestants.

There is still a week to go before the competition, and the stage for the competition has begun to be built here, and in the center of the sports field, many staff are busy coming and going, and the equipment and materials needed to build the stage are piled up in all corners of the sports field.

"It's next week, how are you ready?"

"It's okay."

"What do you mean it's okay? How sure are you? ”

"This is clear, although I know some of these contestants, I don't know them very well, and I don't know until the day of the competition, and now I can only say...... Give it your all. ”

Although the provincial competition is only the champion of each school's primary selection, there are a lot of people together, not to mention that this competition does not distinguish between professional and non-professional, and the strength of many players is even more incalculable.

Chen Xiaodi didn't ask any more, she didn't want Bai Ye to have too much pressure in her heart, she wanted Bai Ye to participate in the competition in the best condition. On the contrary, it was herself, who was stunned when she looked at this huge sports field, and remembered those troubles again.

"Something?"

Chen Xiaodi didn't speak for a long time, Bai Ye turned around, but saw her frowning slightly, a little absent-minded.

“…… Isn't this going to be a change, and our assessment should almost have a result. ”

"You have always been concerned about the affairs of the student union, and everyone sees it, not to mention that you performed well in the interview, what is there to worry about."

"It's not a worry, it's a disappointment."

"What's wrong?"

"I told you, during the period after the interview, any of our jobs are considered part of the assessment, and who will be left in the end will be determined by the performance during this time."

"Well, but even if that's the case, you're no worse than anyone else, the result is undecided, why are you disappointed first?"

Chen Xiaodi sighed deeply and was silent for a long time before speaking.

"I don't know if I'm thinking too much, I always feel that in the past month, I've had nothing to do alone."

"How?"

"From the interview to the present, the May Fourth Commendation Conference and the just-concluded choir competition are the most important tasks, and there are usually no arrangements. Originally, I thought that everyone was equally idle, but it wasn't until I was preparing for the May Fourth Conference that I realized that everyone had a part in the preparations, and everyone was very busy, but even when I arrived at the venue, there was almost nothing to do, and they had their own arrangements for everything, and I didn't need to interfere. ”

"You mean, everybody was put to work, but you weren't?"

"Hmm."

Chen Xiaodi couldn't be sure for a while, but he still nodded lightly.

"I think those people in your student union are pretty good, so you don't treat them differently like this, right? Besides, if you really don't want to stay, why would you pass the interview? ”

"I don't know."

Chen Xiaodi said, walked to the side and found a place to sit down, slowly thinking about all this, his eyes were a little confused.

"But I know it's my own sake."

"Why do you think that?"

Bai Ye saw that Chen Xiaodi's eyes were a little lost, and he was a little distressed for a moment.

"In the past two years in the student union, everyone has been very good to me, and they will take good care of me every time, in short, I am very happy, especially in the year when I was transferred to the Department of Culture and Sports, each of my officers is not just a partner, but also a good friend."

"Well, I can understand."

"So when I really had to hand in the registration form and face a higher level of selection, I hesitated, and I struggled with whether to leave or stay. I remember I told you that I just want to finish my year as a minister, and I think that's enough for that. ”

Bai Ye listened quietly, did not speak, just nodded lightly.

"But when I knew that none of them were going to stay in office, I suddenly felt that I couldn't just leave them and put them in someone else's hands, so I decided to stay again."

"But on the day of the interview, I found that they were all there, and suddenly I felt cheated, but I was also really happy, because no matter who left a few people in our center, at least in the future, it would be a person they knew better."

"That's not good, so what does it matter if you stay or not."

"But when I was actually in the interview, I really wished I could stay, so when I look back now, I always feel like I wanted it to be a fair fight. But I also know that the teacher has his own considerations, and of course he wants the students to develop in a better direction, so he will consider letting go of the instability on my side and make a more secure decision. ”

"Haven't you thought it through, what else is there to be disappointed in?"

"Probably disappointed in myself, disappointed that I didn't convince others that I could turn this instability into stability."

Chen Xiaodi said, looking up into the distance.

"Didn't you say that as long as you work hard to do everything, no matter what the result is, you will not regret it, if you really regret it, it must be that you have not paid enough. So you regretted making the decision to participate in this selection? ”

"No regrets."

"Isn't that the end of it, a clear conscience is the best outcome."

Bai Ye looked at Chen Xiaodi and said softly, Chen Xiaodi also looked at him and smiled softly, and the knot in his heart seemed to be finally untied.
